Hi, I was poking around with the CSV importer and I noticed the following, this may also be an issue with other importers on first use after creating a new file... With a new empty xml file, I used a one line transaction csv file with appropriate settings and the 'Account' set to 'Assets:Current Assets:Checking Account' and observed the following when I got to the match page...
With the 'Checking Account' register open it would partly show the imported transactions, (this can be fixed by suspending GUI changes which I was going to propose in a PR) and the register would reload seven times. This reloading is caused by the triggering of the 'imap_convert_bayes_to_flat' function and as it is a new file you would not expect it to do any thing but it does. Adding a few print statements I get the following... matchmap_find_destination imap_convert_bayes_to_flat convert_imap_account_bayes_to_flat 'Assets' gnc_split_register_load called for account 'Assets:Current Assets:Checking Account' with list of 1 convert_imap_account_bayes_to_flat 'Current Assets' gnc_split_register_load called for account 'Assets:Current Assets:Checking Account' with list of 1 convert_imap_account_bayes_to_flat 'Checking Account' gnc_split_register_load called for account 'Assets:Current Assets:Checking Account' with list of 1 convert_imap_account_bayes_to_flat 'Liabilities' gnc_split_register_load called for account 'Assets:Current Assets:Checking Account' with list of 1 convert_imap_account_bayes_to_flat 'Income' gnc_split_register_load called for account 'Assets:Current Assets:Checking Account' with list of 1 convert_imap_account_bayes_to_flat 'Expenses' gnc_split_register_load called for account 'Assets:Current Assets:Checking Account' with list of 1 convert_imap_account_bayes_to_flat 'Equity' gnc_split_register_load called for account 'Assets:Current Assets:Checking Account' with list of 1 As you can see, seven accounts get updated forcing the register reload seven times, (not sure why those other accounts force a reload either), and this gets even worse if this first import is 100 transactions which would equate to 700 reloads. I have not worked out why all these accounts are updated or why after the first pass the converted flag is not set/noticed there by eliminating the convert for the rest of the transactions, it only seems to be noticed on subsequent imports. You also get this behaviour if you start the 'Import Map Dialogue' which may be the source of a report about that dialogue freezing but that needs more investigating. Any idea why these accounts are updated and why it runs on every import transaction row ?
